<div dir="ltr"><font color="#000000" size="2" face="Tahoma">The International Symposium on Biomedical Simulation (ISBMS) is a well-established scientific meeting that provides an international forum for researchers interested in using biomedical simulation
technology for the improvement of patient care and patient safety. To celebrate its 5th edition, the symposium will be organized in conjunction with the International Meeting on Simulation in Healthcare (IMSH). Already in its 10th anniversary, IMSH is the
premier simulation in healthcare meeting and largest single gathering of clinicians, educators, administrators and other simulation stakeholders. This unique link up aims to bring together simulation users with those involved in its scientific and technological
developments.</font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font size="2" face="tahoma"></font> </div>
<div dir="ltr"><font color="#000000" size="2" face="Tahoma">In continuation of the spirit of previous symposia at INRIA (2003), CIMIT (2004), ETH (2006) and Imperial College (2008), ISBMS ’10 will be held as a single track meeting to stimulate participants
in sharing their latest work and discuss future trends and applications. In addition to original scientific contributions selected based on double-blinded peer review and keynote presentations, the meeting will offer opportunities to present demonstration
systems. Moreover, panel discussions will be dedicated to crucial topics in biomedical simulation and fostering closer interaction between scientists and engineers with simulation stakeholders. The proceedings of the symposium will be published in the Springer
Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series.</font></div>
